His Cross
Oh, in repentance, wrap your arms around
the cross of Christ.
Oh, praise God our Father that the cross of Christ
is now empty, but remember,
it is the sins of His children –
my sins and yours, that nailed Him there.
Oh, pray that His blood falls on us – unwasted.
In repentance, His blood cleanses us
from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:7-9
Oh, praise to the Lamb of God Who takes away
my sin and the sins of the world. John 1:29-34
Oh, praise to our Father in heaven
Who gave the Lamb. John 3:3-5, 15-21
May you, by His Spirit, eat His flesh and drink
His blood to receive His life in you. John 6:47-57
May He bless you with more and more
of Himself to be His disciple –
laying aside all sin Heb. 12:1,2
laying down your life,
taking up your cross to follow Him. Mark 8:34
All praise to His holy life laid down, for us to use
in power, that we, as guilty sinners,
may lay down our lives.
Oh, let us join to glory in the cross. Gal. 6:14
And grow in the love
of our Lord Jesus Christ. Eph. 3:14-21
